Vivek on Synths/Keys

Some of my very favorite passionate artists on SoundCloud.
All are Passionate, dedicated Creatives, and it's been my great Pleasure to come to know their music.
This is the first of many Volumes of Playlists i've been saving. There's so many thousands of amAzing musicians that i've had to put them in Shuffle Mode ;). LOL

So here's the first course of this Musical  Feast.

sMILEs and Best Wishes to One and All !  :-D

The Revivalists new album, Men Amongst Mountains, will be released on July 17th through Wind-up Records! We have poured a lot of time and energy over last year to craft an album that we feel captures a perfect snapshot of this entity that we all call The Revivalists. These 14 songs have traveled with us over the last few years in vans, busses, planes and boats to all corners of this country and then beyond. For those of you who have come to see us over the past year, some of these could already be your favorite Revivalists songs, and some of them are already ours. We hope to see each and every one of you over the next few months and beyond out on the road. We've also launched a preorder for Men Amongst Mountains here with CDs, 2LP vinyl, posters, postcards, phone calls, tickets, art proofs and much more.

Wish I Knew You

I'm happy to post here this cover of "Jump they say",  brilliantly orchestrated and brought to life by "Phil & friends" :-) It's from David Bowie's 1993 "Black tie, white noise" album. To be honest I'd never heard this song before, but I took to it immediately and thoroughly enjoyed doing my bit :-) 

Thanks again Phil for the opportunity, and a big hand to Rick and Lisa for their top notch contributions :)

Lyrics :

When comes the shaking man
A nation in his eyes
Striped with blood and emblazed tattoo
Streaking cathedral spire
They say
They say
They say

He has no brain
They say
He has no mood
They say
He was born again
They say
Look at him climb
They say 'jump'
They say 'jump'

They say
He has two gods
They say
He has no fear
They say
He has no eyes
They say
He has no mouth

They say hey that's really something
They feel he should get some time
I say he should watch his ass
My friend don't listen to the crowd they say 'jump'
They say 'jump'
Watchout!
Watchout!
They say hey that's really something
They feel he should get some time
I say he should watch his ass
My friend don't listen to the crowd say 'jump'
Got to believe somebody
They say 'jump'
Got to believe somebody
They say 'jump'
Got to believe 
They say 'jump'
Got to believe somebody
Jump!

Jump They Say - David Bowie Cover (in collaboration with Phil McWalter, Faerytale & Rick Medlock)

... most important part of a jawharpe is a tongue of tempered steel, as also the reeds of a harmonica are. ... so for me this instruments are related in a way, ...... but not often found together. To combine this vibrations might be unusual :) hope I suceeded in making them flow in a cool way!

Wow!  It's been a very Long month since my last release on SoundCloud.
It seems like Forever. But here we Are!!! :D

It Delights me to announce the birth of my latest 'Musical Child', who I've named 'Tiramisu'. (Pronounced - Tear-ah-Mih-zoo.)  Her name alludes to what one might call a 'Pick-Me-Up'.  It comes from a delicious Italian Dessert made of Lady Fingers, Custard, Hazelnuts, and Chocolate! MMM mm m. ;) May She " Live Long and Prosper" ! :D
                                                                                                
Cheers, and Warmest Regards !

Attention visitors,
For more than eight years, a hacker has set my follower count to the number of the beast, 666. I've notified SoundCloud management and the police about this bizarre crime on several occasions, but neither party has followed through with a solution. Let it be known that although I am an atheist, I do not now, nor have I ever had any interest or connection to satanism, witchcraft, voodoo, occultism, or any other foul ideologies my persecutors wish to attach to me.
